“And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen.”
Numbers 5:22 (KJV)
Commentary on Numbers 5:22
The curse specifically targets the woman's reproductive capacity—the thigh to rot and belly to swell. Since the suspected sin involved sexual betrayal, the consequence affects the same area of life. This is an example of measure-for-measure justice. The final 'Amen, Amen' from the woman constitutes her consent to the terms of the oath, accepting that if guilty, this curse should fall upon her. The double Amen emphasizes the solemnity and finality of her agreement.
